Simplicity enters the genre of EASPORTS NHL and UFC with the acquisition of the number one player on the Xbox platform of “Yung Gren” and top performers of “Sitful, HowToChel, No Regretzkys, and Dmart.” Dmart will also be cross-performing in the title of UFC as Dmart is the number one ranked Canadian who plays UFC competitively in the ESFL “Esports Fight League.”

As Simplicity enters the titles of EASPORTS NHL & UFC, all five competitors will compete in the NHL’s first ever eSports event for a share of a prize pool of $100,000. You can read more here.

Gren will be representing Simplicity at the “NHL 18 Snider Hockey Cup” that is being hosted by WorldGaming on Thursday, March 22nd, 2018 at XFINITY LIVE! Philadelphia for a chance at a share of $17,500.

We spoke with Cortez who is our Head of Content and Talent Acquisitions on the acquisition of the players and for his thoughts and he had to say,

“As a person that competes in a 6v6 NHL league already, my passion for this game is there and I’m eager to be expanding into the NHL and UFC EASPORTS titles. With having a NBA and English Premier League owner “Jed Kaplan” as our organization owner and managing partner, we value the growth in any sport striving to become an established eSport. We as an organization are beyond excited for the five individuals that we’ve signed. With a spread of representation over North America and some top talent, we’re happy to see what these individuals do with this opportunity as the NHL expands into eSports. As for Dmart with UFC, the ESFL has been continuously expanding since its launch in February, and with Dmart being a top talent in the title and a top talent at NHL, we couldn’t think of anyone better to represent in both titles.”

We spoke to the players on their thoughts of being signed and representing Simplicity moving forward and they said,
